Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Infidelity can shatter trust, emotional safety, and the future you believed you were building. It may bring grief, anger, shame, confusion, intrusive thoughts, and difficult questions about whether the relationship can—or should—continue.
I provide a balanced, nonjudgmental space to understand what happened, process the emotional impact, and clarify your needs and choices. Whether the goal is reconciliation, separation, or simply regaining stability, therapy can support honest communication, healthy boundaries, accountability, and informed decisions. Healing is possible, whether that means rebuilding the relationship or rebuilding yourself.

Scheyden Herold
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #137593, MS
In my work with couples, I don't believe infidelity is the final straw to end the relationship. The challenges that are presented with this issue are great, but I believe we can work to truly find out what is best for the both of you when it comes to managing this.

Ms. Carol Jean Timmons
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
There are ways for couples to get over an affair! Therapy can help a couple explore the 'why' behind the affair, learn how to grieve the feelings of betrayal and loss, and recover from the trauma of the infidelity. Couple Therapy can then help the partners rebuild their marriage and restore lost trust so that the bond is deeper and stronger than ever before!

Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Infidelity can be deeply painful and destabilizing for both individuals and relationships. I work with individuals and couples to understand the context in which it occurred, including unmet needs, patterns, and relational dynamics. Therapy focuses on processing the impact, rebuilding trust where possible, and creating a clearer path forward.

Benedict Choi, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, EMDR, IFS Informed
Affairs are deeply life altering and one of, if not the most painful experiences a relationship can endure. The betrayal is in many ways a form of trauma that requires repairing and healing. From working with many couples that have experienced progress with this issue, two things are pivotal for recovery:
1. It's paramount that the injured partner is given the space to express how hurt, disappointed, angry, and in pain they are due to this event. Only until the injured partner "feels felt" (understood fully) will it be possible for them to reach back out to the partner that did the hurting to understand the meaning and why it happened.
2. I'm of the belief that while affairs are catastrophic and extremely difficult, it can also be the very thing that preserves the relationship, it serves as a door to look into what conditions were put in place that allowed for the affair to happen in the first place. This helps the relationship grow, redefine and creates opportunity for a second relationship if both people are committed to the work of repair and curiosity.

Dr. Shelby Kittinger
Psychologist, PsyD
I help partners and individuals process the pain and disorientation that follow betrayal or broken trust. Using an attachment and emotionally focused lens, we work to understand underlying needs, restore safety, and rebuild (or redefine) connection with honesty and care.
